Psychics Charged

Tarot Reading
The complaint additionally charges that the defendant told the second undercover that someone had given her mother something bad to eat when she was inside her mother's womb and requested $1,300 from the undercover to bring her ex-boyfriend back and fix a jealousy that another woman had on her. On one occasion, the defendant allegedly performed a purported ritual to determine if God's will was present; specifically, the defendant had the undercover tie three knots on a string, which were allegedly gone when the defendant rolled the string up into a ball. However, the undercover observed the defendant switch the string. The defendant was arrested on June 27when the undercover handed the defendant $1,100 that she had allegedly previously requested.

Finally, it is charged that on March 21 and March 28, 2006, the undercover officer entered Rose Miller's business establishment at 37-17 30th Avenue, which had the words "Psychic Readings by Rosa" on a wooden stand outside the entrance. On each occasion, the undercover allegedly paid the defendant $35 for a psychic tarot card reading and the defendant made purported psychic predictions after stating that she could tell the officer's future. In all three cases, it is alleged that the defendants never stated nor there were signs anywhere on their premises indicting that their psychic readings or services were for entertainment purposes only.

District Attorney Brown noted that the investigation is continuing and requested that victims of similar crimes come forward and contact his office. 6-29-06
